Czar of Russia (born 1796) who reigned from 1825 until his death in 1855. By crushing the Decembrist Uprising, he confirmed the autocracy of czarist rule, but disastrous losses in the Crimean War marked the collapse of his foreign and domestic policies. LS in Russian, signed “Nikolai I,” one page, 7.5 x 8.75, January 11, 1826. Letter to Count Peter Khristianovich. In part (translated): “I could not have expected feelings from you other than those which I found, with particular pleasure, in your letter to me…I am thoroughly convinced that the troops you have raised will be inspired by the example of the leader who is respected by them, to distinguish themselves zealously and strictly performing their required duties.” In fine condition, with a couple of small pencil notations to top left.
